The EDAS Climate Conference Series, ‘Planet | People | Place: Scotland’s Climate Opportunity’ aims to be high calibre, action focused, participative, and contributive to the direction of travel, and opening of opportunities for those on the ground. The final session in the EDAS ‘Climate’ Conference Series is a reflection piece, inviting speakers from both public and private sector to discuss and recap on previous sessions and Scotland’s Net Zero progress so far.
